Peeking out from beneath a straw hat is always a different experience. It’s like you are in your own personal room, sheltered from the sun, viewing things from beneath a protective canopy. And dang hasn’t it been hot? That is why this tropical sundress from melissa46 is so perfect—stylish and cool, its simple mesh shape has the best texture for keeping cool. I really love how she placed this abstract look on this dress.

My hair is one of Kavar Cleanslate’s offerings for the Hair Fair, and gosh, I love these swept aside bangs. The style is ideal for being under a straw hat like this. I love my pale skin from Aida Ewing, an inexpensive offering at Collabor88 and a great way to grab this premier skin maker’s work at a below-value price.
